The definition of "mensch"

A friend who lives in Seattle, just down the street from the Jewish center that was shot up by the angry Muslim on Friday, writes that he took a walk in the neighborhood this afternoon. This is what he saw:

A little old man was standing a couple doors down from the Jewish Center, holding a sign which read, "I am a Muslim but today I am a Jew."

UPDATE: Reader Clare notes in the comboxes that the shooting suspect, who had declared himself a Muslim, had actually left his Islamic faith last year and accepted Christian baptism. Read all about it. Will Andrew Sullivan take this opportunity to declare the suspect a Christianist anti-Semite, just like Mel Gibson? This guy, Haq, also seems to have had mental problems, and there was tension between him and his father.
